Stratification for BCC and SCC cancer types showed an increased risk for BCC, and a positive trend for the SCC.

Plots of residuals against fitted values showed a positive trend, with all of the largest fitted values showing positive residuals (Appendix S5).

Analyzing 85,347 fitness test results from Australians aged 9 to 17 years, performance exhibited a positive trend linked to age, peaking around 15 years [ 9 ].

Although less work in health risk communication has focused on this issue than on randomness, a gamified design—in which participants clicked concealed icons in an array to reveal whether or not the event occurred for each individual in the population—showed promise, with a positive trend toward helping people understand the risks [ 31 ].

The presence of one or two data points with high ESV, SV and LVEF show a relatively large positive difference between PET and MRI, giving the impression of a positive trend in the Bland Altman plots (Fig. 4 ).

In the western part of EA (Tanzania, Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda and South Sudan), a positive trend was detected (increase of 10–30 kg ha −1 yr −1 , significant for a 90% confidence level).

As a result of this negative trend, placebo-adjusted mean percentage change in SBP for the clevidipine dose groups shows a positive trend 6 and 8 h after cessation of clevidipine infusion (Fig. 2 c).

Using the protocol resulted in a positive trend toward better INR reversal in group 1.

Finally while not significant, there was a positive trend between semantic knowledge of objects and the production of “shape outline” gestures during word-finding difficulties for objects.

In fact, we found such a positive trend to be present but heavily affected by one outlier who performed surprisingly well with the static classifier.

There was a positive trend in local deer density with increasing NDVI, though the effect was not significant (NDVI: F = 3.5; df = 1, 15; p = .08).

3 a) exhibits a positive trend for North-western India, Konkan coast and a declining trend for North-eastern India.

Conclusions While our pragmatic randomized study showed a positive trend among patients receiving text messages, no firm conclusions may yet be drawn regarding glycemic control, due to above mentioned limitations.

A positive trend was observed between the unsaturated/saturated fatty acid ratio of the oils and the mean growth of Lactobacillus strains.

However, data from a kinetic study in CVID patients showed relatively stable anti-spike IgG antibody levels 4 weeks and 20 weeks after 2 nd COVID-19 vaccination and a positive trend for increased avidity after 3 rd vaccination [ 9 ].

Part 2—Screen Trainee feedback presented a positive trend in response to the visual elements of the platform ( Table 5 ).

Portugal and Spain have the highest fire trend among southern European countries 55 , with Portugal showing a positive trend since the 1980s 56 .

In the short term, five studies collected data; our analysis showed a positive trend in favour of aquatic therapy in four studies [ 23 , 27 , 32 , 36 ], but the Fonseca [ 29 ] study showed a trend in favour of the Inter-relational School of FM (Figs. 3 , 4 and 5 ).

Notably, a positive trend in increasing serum levels of innate immunity markers, such as natural killer (NK) cells, and adaptive immunity markers, such as CD8 and CD4 T lymphocytes, was observed in the treated participants.

A positive trend was found between D -BMAP18 dose and macroscopic damage, although it was not statistically significant because of the relevant data dispersion (Figure 4B ).

The Phase 1b/2a study demonstrated a positive trend in efficacy, with a dose-dependent increase in the SLE Responder Index (SRI-4) response rate and a decrease in circulating antidsDNA antibodies compared to placebo.

23 On the other hand, a positive trend is reflected by the surface concentration at the interphase, Γ values, that increased in the samples based on mixed micelles (up to 9 × 10 –7 mol m –2 in the case of P188/P407). 23 The surface area occupied by one surfactant molecule has significantly ( p < 0.05) decreased (from 5 to 2 nm 2 ) in mixed micelles, demonstrating tighter organization of Poloxamer molecules at the phase boundary and more effective adsorption.

Examples of linguistic spin include “a positive trend,” “highly significant” or “excellent results” ( 7 , 17 , 18 ).
